Alexander: I have had a very fun-filled weekend.
It was Jordan's 1st Birthday and my 2 1/2 yr old Birthday (I couldn't let him
have all of the cake), so we had cake, sang Happy Birthday and blew out candles.
I had to help Jordan with the candles, but he did pretty good with the cake.
We got to go to the store and pick out a present. Jordan wanted a little
basketball hoop for the bathtub. I got another little pony.
The second fun thing that we did was to go to the Children's
Museum with our friends. There were a lot of cool places to run around and
play. I think my favorite place was the ant hill. There were lots of
little tunnels to climb in and slides and ramps.

Jordan: Well, I am one years old. I survived a whole year despite my
brother always beating me up and "helping" my parents. My Birthday was
pretty fun. I got to eat a cupcake my way - with my hands and by making a
huge mess. Now I can hardly wait until next year.
I think my favorite part of the Children's Museum was the
slide. I could not get enough of it. It is the same way whenever we
go to the park. I am always asking to o down the slide again and again.

There is no way that I would eat an eggplant.
